We haven’t thought QB from 2012 to 2018. Had to trade 3 seconds to draft Darnold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usanyj Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 I recall most people saying Allen couldn't hit water if he fell out of a boat. Sometimes its just coaching and the guys around you that help you grow. We didn't do that for Sam. We neglected him, the bills built around allen and helped him along to become the guy you saw last night. Get Zach and the O some help. The Bengals had the first pick in the 2020 draft, less than 2 years later they are in the title game. This can be done. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warfish Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Offense > Defense, and there is no universe where "Zach didn't have weapons or time to throw" should be true in 2022. If it is true, JD should be fired, flat out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonny Werblin Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 I learned that if Buffalo gets and effective edge rusher and adds a big do it all RB, they might just be unstoppable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slimjasi Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Eh, the line is thinner than you might think. We need another big offseason and Wilson has to take the proverbial jump. But we have a chance. We have plenty of assets. Look at what Zach Taylor and Kyle Shanahan did in their first two years. We have NO EXCUSE for not being at least competitive next season. Bengals (Zach Taylor): 2019: 2-14 2020: 4-11-1 49ers (Kyle Shanahan): 2017: 6-10 2018: 4-12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt they'll be on a par with the best teams by that point, but if they have the pieces to develop it'll be a massive step forward. Right now we don't even have question marks at most positions ... we have nothing. If we see Moore and Carter progressing and bring in similar promising picks at WR and TE we'll be on the right path. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jets gave Sam a ton of rope and 3 full years. Zach is going to get 3 full years. Allen had 20 TD's passing and 9 rushing in his second year. He's miles better than Darnold and he would be our starter today if we drafted him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get a RG, get a legit TE and get a #1WR...and fill out the defense with a few more vets (all of which can be achieved this offseason) and catch some breaks with health... Bottom line really comes down to Wilson's development. That's how the gap closes....It closes when/if Wilson can start playing like a top QB. When that happens the Jets will get better. What I really like about what JD did here - is he understood what it was going to take - which is why you go after a guy like Wilson...His skill-set is there to play with those guys... Wether or not he reaches that potential is still a big question mark - but he has the natural ability to be an elite QB. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gap is wide. Very wide. The gap in QB play is the one that matters. Mahomes and Allen look like all time HOF greats in the beginning of their prime. Unless Wilson becomes great we don’t have a chance. The rest hardly matters if Wilson busts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gap is wide. Very wide. If Saleh was calling the defense for the Bucks and Bills at the end of those games, the Bills and Bucks would probably have won. What I learned is that good defense is not allowed to exist these days. The league makes the rules so that football games resemble a track and field contest for 55 minutes and for the last five minutes of the game, the NFL now resembles that last minute of an NBA game. Just start these games at 40 to 40 with 5 minutes to go. Same effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
